Congrats again, the bridle looks great! Good luck at Devon.

If you can believe it, I used to foxhunt as a teen, with the Romwell Foxhounds. Modern show hunters are beautiful but they seem so far removed from that experience.

great post and very informative. i'll have to come back more often!<BR/><BR/>i'm a bit old-fashioned when it comes to hunter ring tack, and i prefer a slightly more polished version of a flat hunting bridle for showing. i ride mostly warmblood types, and their large heads are really flattered by a substantial, plain (not stitching) flat bridle with a good, extra wide cavesson (i'm talking 1" or

Thanks for another well-informed post. I read your blog religiously and I really appreciate your honest curiosity and open-mindedness––the fact that you actually know what you're talking about is a bonus.<BR/>I've just started my own blog, and I'd love it if you'd include a link to my site: http://dressageprincess.blogspot.com/.<BR/><BR/>All the best!

Thanks -- in our first little breed show at Mile View Farm, we got third out of three. The two others were quite nice and Riley is still a bit immature looking. But his manners were impeccable and he behaved where others were very, very naughty :-). So I'm thrilled!

I'm glad I'm so out of it that I just buy bridles that fit and that I can afford. You did a wonderful job of research -- no doubt that's why you won! Congrats!<BR/><BR/>May your luck continue in the show ring.

We've always opted for the very traditional bridles. I think they look the classiest.Bridles with too much going on take away from the beauty of the horses head.
